Re: Seacast ?
 
The other MAJOR problem with SEACAST is weight. I've researched it some myself for my HYDRA-SPORT project and decided against it. I believe the that seacast will weigh roughly 3 times what wood does for the same volume. It is nothing more than recycled fiberglass held together with epoxy resin. Try these sites for some reading on transom work.
